Dude Image sales are fine. Kirkman is just poking fun at Marvel it’s all in good taste and no harm done. If Marvel can get all up and arms at DC out selling them with Blackest Night, then surely Image can poke a little joke at the high and mighty Marvel comics.

Why so many trying to make it into some bitterness thing. It’s just a joke. And it’s kind of funny. Marvel is making a big deal about the Avengers line-up changes. Yeah, because that doesn’t happen too often.

I’ve got a question that may be slightly off-topic (but is also connected, in that it’s about a Robert Kirkman series for Marvel):
I really kind of love Kirkman’s Destroyer mini-series, from last year- published under Marvel Max. But I only remember one interview/article about it, then nothing. Is there anyone else who read it and either enjoyed it or hated it? I don’t recall much talk about it as the issues were being released or when it ended. Looking back, Destroyer showed up in a few topics and comics about Marvel’s 70th anniversary last year, but that mini-series seemed to fly under the radar.

This is fun and why Image comics is my favorite comic book publisher. They can do whatever they want with their books and not have to worry about messing up a certain character because they own the characters not the company like Marvel and DC. I started reading comics in the 90s and I have to say Image has made me very happy over the years, this spin off looks too be funny and cool I look forward to it. At least with their books they don’t try and be all serious and realistic Invincible, Savage Dragon, and even Spawn is a mixture of fun and a good read.

Also they don’t over charge their books like a certain other company so many love to praise.

Marvel Zombies was a complete failure? Get out of here, he wasn’t a failure at Marvel, he had other opportunities. Image made him a partner.”

Dude, you’re ADDRESSING “Marvel Zombies.” Heh. Unfortunately, some comic book fans really are endowed with little more than the smarts and brand loyalty of the average 12 year-old. If you ignore these trolls, they’ll disappear that much faster. Whenever I read about somebody refusing to buy a comic book because it mentions Obama’s name or because a certain publisher is putting it out, I just assume I’m looking at a high functioning autistic individual. It’s the only thing that makes sense to an adult mind.

Beyond that, I don’t get the hate for these promos, even if the books isn’t going to have all these characters in them I think it’s a great way to have fun and promote a new book. What’s the hate about?

seriously, I think this current group of comics fans just love to bitch about anything. ‘things are to dark and gritty, Marvel and DC suck!’
now it’s ‘things are to fun, Marvel and DC suck!’

Then: I can’t stand it anymore, everything is the same!
now: Things are to different! This sucks!

I am sure Marvel is fine with getting made fun of. They have done it to themselves enough with their talk of Deadpool. But Kirkman only goes after Marvel when he “pokes fun” never DC, which shows that he is bitter and holds a grudge against Marvel.
